    Aren't those import cars parked in front?? And to the right of that building is another building with very interesting signage....

    (Awkward moment.........)

      Maybe the bike started out on top and fell off, cuz that looks dumb as hell even for a Harley club. Maybe we should start emailing them offers?

          Sheessh ok, this is in OshKosh then it makes alot of sense. The most excitement they have had in 50 years was getting that bike up there. Prbably just could not figure out how to fight gravity by getting it upside right.

          Flew into OshKosh once, choice of terminal 1 or terminal 2 depending which of the two doors out fo th ebuilding are closest to your puddlejumper airplane. Lanidn over Lake Winnebego is also a pucker upper for sure!!

            Is this the place?
            LOL.. If you turn the view, as stated, you can see the detour signs.. as well as the skid marks on the road smacking the curb.. lol. Probably somebody didn't see the signs while they were looking at the stupid M/C hanging upside down.

              Giving them the benefit of a doubt

              (not really)

              Maybe they didn't measure the mount before they hoisted the bike up and just decided "to heck with it... it stays!"

              or

              Maybe they wanted to drain the gas from the tank... the hard way...

              or

              Maybe they have a sign inside that says "Stay on the bike outside for 8 seconds and win a free beer"


              and why the heck are the vehicles in the parking lot cages anyway? What kind of bike club is that?

                Good point!

                Maybe they want so badly to be known as an "outlaw" MC club, but couldn't think of what law to break. Then, the new guy mentioned the law of gravity, and they all decided they could break that one!

                  Reminds me a bit of those Andrew Wyeth paintings where he depicts farmers hanging a dead wolf from a tree in order to scare away the living ones from the herds..

                          I doubt it... If they're HD owners, they'd be taking them to a mechanic to get 'em fixed. Unless maybe they are just bolting on more shiny chrome pieces!
